# Add participants from a screener to a study
If you've used a Dscout screener to recruit participants, you can add those participants to a study when you're ready to hear more from them.
Here are some things to keep in mind when adding participants from a screener to a study.
* Participants added to **draft studies** will be invited when the study is launched.
* Participants added to **launched studies** will be invited immediately.
* **Partner Panels participants** can only be added to one Dscout study.
* Participant cannot be added manually to **intercept studies**, which recruit based on live behavior.
**To add participants from a screener to a study:**
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Navigate to the **Responses** tab of your screener.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Select the participants you want to add to a study using the checkboxes beside their names. The bulk action toolbar is displayed.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Click **Invite to study** in the toolbar. A list of studies within your project is displayed.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Select the study you want to add your participants to. Then, click **Invite**.
{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** If a participant has already been added to a study, that study is greyed out/unavailable.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**(Launched diary and interview studies only)** Verify or edit the invite message for your study. Then, click **Send x invites**.
{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** For diary studies with data translation enabled, you'll be prompted to enter your invite message in both English and your selected language.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
Now, your selected participants are added to your study. If you've yet to launch your study, these participants will automatically be invited when you do launch it. If you've already launched your study, the participants will receive invitations to participate immediately.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://help.dscout.com/recruit-participants/what-are-dscout-screeners/add-participants-from-a-screener-to-a-study.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
